Equivariant localization and holography (Q6189664)

The paper introduces the concept of equivariant volume for symplectic toric orbifolds. It delves into the equivariant orbifold index of the Dolbeault complex, which is twisted by a holomorphic line orbi-bundle. Additionally, it provides a detailed examination of several examples of toric orbifolds and their corresponding equivariant volumes. Two alternative methods for evaluating these volumes are presented: the Berline-Vergne fixed point formula and the Molien-Weyl integral formula, both leveraging the representations of toric orbifolds as symplectic quotients. Lastly, the paper explores the application of equivariant localization in the realm of supergravity and its role in calculating the anomaly polynomial of \(4d\) and \(6d\) SCFTs compactified on various orbifolds.
